Abstract

A candidate of a neutron-halo nucleus, Ne31, contains a single neutron in the pf shell. Within the Glauber and eikonal models, we analyze reactions used to study Ne31. We show in a Ne30+n model that the magnitudes of the total reaction and above all of the one-neutron removal cross sections of Ne31 on C12 and Pb208 targets strongly depend on the orbital angular momentum of the neutron, thereby providing us with efficient ways to determine both the spin-parity and structure of the ground state of Ne31. Besides these inclusive observables, we also calculate energy and parallel-momentum distributions for the breakup of Ne31 and show their strong dependence on the orbital of the valence neutron in the bound state of Ne31.
